Between Water and feed, what does needs most?

While many poultry farmers will have diverse views on this question, it is important to point that while feed is the determinant of whether your birds will weigh x kg at x time. Water is the soul of poultry farming. @Coal_City

.. This is to say that it is possible for a poultry farmer to deny the birds feed for up to an hour or more and the birds will still be jumping from Onitsha to Kaduna

But if you dare deny your birds water for a certain period of time, especially when the sun is pretty hot

... Then, be ready to update the mortality book of your farm.

This is why it is important that before you set a poultry farm especially if you are residing in @Coal_City where water supply and the city is on a social distance. You should ensure you have a plan

... For water supply. When I say water supply, I don't mean poor quality water, I am talking about water that is of high quality.

If you can't drink a particular water (even when boiled), please don't feed your birds with such water.

It is pertinent to note that the water intake of birds during dry season is x2 of how they drink during rainy season when the weather is cold, you sef your water intake don increase already .

.. So, if you always fill their drinkers to a certain level, this is the period to double it in order to increase their performance and reduce cases of sick and dead birds.

Wishing everyone a fruitful poultry farming experience during the Christmas period

... Stay safe and keep your "watered" during this hot weather..

I love you guys ..
